Hocus Pocus (1984)

The troupe's imagination is stirred by Uncle Sheng's telling of the ghostly tale, and they begin to tell tales of their own, spooking each other out, and pulling elaborate pranks. Kuei is a minor actor in the troupe but he commands a lot of respect from the other small time players. The lead actor, Chin, is cocky and generally disliked. Kuei and the others play a prank on Chin, pretending to be ghosts after he gets back drunk off his ass. They scare him half to death. The next day, Chin starts a fight with all of them, swearing revenge..
